TECH TOOLS FOR EDUCATORSBelow we have some suggestions for useful tools that can help us organize our work, extend our teaching beyond the classroom, collaborate with our students and our peers, communicate with our students in formats they are already using, and reach out to colleagues around the world.

All of the pull out menus include tools. The pages will grow over time as we add more tools with their descriptions and tutorials, and how we think we can best use them in our work.

Some general tools that are worth exploring are in the Google Environment. There are many useful and open applications -- quite a few of which will be addressed in conference sessions. Google is open and many applications can be shared allowing for collaboration and extending the classroom and learning beyond the walls of one's classroom. There are tutorials for every imaginable application. Below are brief introductions for Google Apps for Education and Google Classroom.
